The Sims 3 is the best part of the series, sadly it hasn't aged too well.
Most players will agree with the statement that "The Sims 4 is okay". I realised after coming back to the series after a few years that the game is a step behind Sims 2 in the best case. I felt unsatisfied with the gameplay so I turned my eyes towards Sims 3, Only to realise that the game is light-years ahead of The Sims 4 gameplay-wise. On the other hand the game has not aged very well and I came across a lot of issues that prevented me from enjoying the game to its full extent. Starting with bugs and glitches, through the graphics that definitely is not the greatest in 2021 but rather ugly, to lack of modernity in the game. This is where my Idea was born.
By Remastering the game players will get a chance to play the best game in the series without running into any issues.
I am not only planning to improve upon the graphics. I have many plans and those include
- AI Upscaling all of the textures.
- adding support for modern hardware.
- UI Upscaling feature for players to be able to play in 4K.
- Creating more realistic and better looking Sims.
- Introduce gameplay features that make the game more modern and player friendly.
- Add beloved features from sims 4 (list coming soon).
- Fix bugs and glitches.
- Create a general graphic overhaul of every single object, texture and element.
- recreate 3D Object but in higher quality with a higher number of vertices.
- Add new design of tiles, walls, floors and everything regarding building a more modern looking house.
- Adding new objects such as furniture that resemble the current designs.
And many more !
Why improve features of sims 3 rather than add sims 3 features to sims 4 ?
I chose the Sims 3 as a base of my project as it gives the ability to have an open world which is an amazing feature that is missing from The sims 4 and completely changes the gameplay and feel of the game (for worse). The openness of the world creates an illusion of freedom and makes the game feel more open which is important because we are trying to resemble real-life in the game, and sims 4 didn't do a great job in that aspect.
The project is NON-PROFIT and only created in order to gain popularity and the funds will be spent on the cost of creating this. I have create it as an enthusiast who wanted to improve the experience, not someone who wishes to make money on the project.
